Chapter 36: Trade Fair Begins

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“Hello, Fellow Daoist Jiang.”

Hearing Qiu Yishui’s introduction, Yan Junlan immediately smiled and greeted Jiang Chengxuan.

She displayed no hostility towards Jiang Chengxuan for not choosing to join my Sunset Sect back then or ignored him intentionally.

People who could cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Realm were not so foolish as to make enemies of themselves for no reason.

Of course, there was no lack of such people.

However, it was a minority after all.

At least so far, Jiang Chengxuan had never encountered one.

After they exchanged pleasantries, Qiu Yishui suddenly looked ahead.

There, a middle-aged man in the uniform of an elder of the Flowing Cloud Sect slowly walked up the platform.

A trace of surprise flashed across Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes.

This was because the middle-aged man who walked up the platform at this moment was none other than Wan Donglai, the elder of the Flowing Cloud Sect who tried to recruit him back then.

At this moment, he looked at everyone and smiled.

“I’m Wan Donglai, the elder of the Flowing Cloud Sect. It’s about time. Let’s begin this trade fair.”

After a pause, he continued,

“Since it’s a trade fair held by the Flowing Cloud Sect, I’ll take the lead.”

With that, Wan Donglai took out a few things from his body.

A bottle of pills, a Dharma artifact, and a fiery red stone the size of a palm.

He showed these three things to everyone.

The bottle contained Profound Essence Pills. It was specially used by late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators to help them quickly increase their True Essence and cultivation.

As for the Dharma artifact, it was a high-grade Level 2 spear.

It was called the True Martial Taiyi Spear. It was made of high-grade Level 2 precious material, Taiyi Golden Crystal Iron. It was inlaid with many offensive runes and was especially suitable for close combat type cultivators.

As for the last item, it was a high-grade Level 2 treasure called True Fire Heaven Crystal.

It could help cultivators quickly comprehend high-grade Level 2 fire-element spells, could also be used to set up high-grade Level 2 attack arrays, and could also be used to forge high-grade Level 2 fire-element artifacts. It was a relatively precious material.

It had to be said that the three items Wan Donglai took out were very rare.

The eyes of many cultivators present lit up.

They were extremely tempted.

At this moment, Wan Donglai smiled and said, “A bottle of Profound Essence Pills, a high-grade Level 2 offensive Dharma artifact, and a True Fire Heaven Crystal. I don’t think I need to say anything about the value of these three things.

Here, I want to use them to exchange for Level 2 wood and earth element materials of the same quality or wind and lightning element materials of the same quality.

Of course, if it’s a wind and lightning element material of the same quality, we can discuss the price.”

Hearing Wan Donglai’s conditions, many cultivators could not help but look disappointed.

Obviously, they did not have the things Wan Donglai mentioned.

However, there was no lack of cultivators present who had these precious materials.

Soon, a female cultivator at the late-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm took out a high-grade Level 2 earth element material and exchanged it with Wan Donglai.

Then, two other late-stage Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators used wood-element materials to exchange for the other two items from Wan Donglai.

Wan Donglai was obviously not satisfied.

In fact, what he hoped to obtain the most this time was the materials with the wind and lightning elements.

However, he knew very well that precious materials with special elements like wind and lightning were hard to come back, let alone high-grade Level 2 ones.

Soon, Wan Donglai walked off the stage.

Immediately, a ninth level Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator walked up.

He took out a cloud-like thing from his body and said to everyone,

“Everyone, this item is called Dream Smoke. It’s the main material for setting up a high-grade Level 2 illusion array, and it’s also the main material for refining some special artifacts.

I think the price of this item is self-evident. I just want to exchange it for a Purple Violet Pill or a treasure that can help one combat inner demons.”

Purple Violet Pill?

Hearing this name, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart skipped a beat.

If he remembered correctly, Purple Violet Pill seemed to be a pill that could help cultivators protect their Dao heart and soul when they failed to break through to the Violet Palace Realm.

Although it didn’t increase the success rate of breaking through to the Violet Palace Realm, after taking it, at least your safety could be guaranteed.

As long as you didn’t die and recuperated well for eight to ten years, you would have a chance to make a second attempt to break through to the Violet Palace Realm.

When Qiu Yishui, who was beside Jiang Chengxuan, heard the item the ninth level Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator wanted, she shook her head.

“Dream Smoke is not enough to exchange a Purple Violet Pill. It seems like this fellow Daoist wants to try to break through to the Violet Palace Realm in the near future.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan couldn’t help but turn to look at her and ask,

“Fellow Daoist Qiu, why does that fellow Daoist want a treasure that can help him combat his inner demons?”

Yan Junlan looked over and said, “Don’t you know why?”

Jiang Chengxuan did not feel embarrassed at all. Hearing that, he shook his head.

“I really don’t know. After all, Fellow Daoist Qiu, as you know, it’s only been four or five years since I broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm.”

Qiu Yishui nodded in understanding. “That’s true.”

She said, “If we Foundation Establishment Cultivators want to break through to the Violet Palace Realm, the most important step is to use the power of our divine souls to open the Niwan Palace and turn True Essence into magic power.

In this process, one will experience all kinds of tribulations.

The most dangerous one is the inner demons.

At that time, you will feel guilty, regretful, sad, angry, happy, or a mixture of all of the emotions.

At that moment, if you can not protect your Dao heart, there is a high chance that you will be devoured by these emotions.

At that time, your True Essence will go berserk, your cultivation will backfire, and your divine soul will be destroyed.

That’s why we need external help.”

Jiang Chengxuan nodded in realization. “I see.”

At this moment.

Seeing that no one came up to exchange with him for what he wanted after a long time, the ninth level Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator knew that this exchange would probably not succeed. In the end, he left the stage in disappointment.
